Gamespot gave R&C a low score to signify how amazing Mario Galaxy is

I have 30+ stars so far in Mario Galaxy. The awe that I am getting from this game is the same feeling I had when I first played Mario 64. For those of you who were old enough to witness the transition from SNES/PS to Mario64, you will understand that this is quite an achievement.

I simply cannot describe to you the amazing nature of this title. The controls are so seemless and intuitive. While the whole time allowing you to do things never before possible in any other game, simply due to the locked freedom in control controllers gave their players.

This game brings it's fans an experiance that is out of this world ( pun :P ), filled with vibrant graphics and varied gameplay which not only puts it together well, but also showcases ideas and concepts of how the Wii really could change the face of gaming. Just a simple example being this one planet which has you ride the back of a Manatee, and essentially jet sky across this river of raging waves. The control scheme coupled with the rumble makes your really makes you feel like you entire right hand is the manatee itself - and makes you think... wow, if they turned this into Wave Race... it would be amazing. This kind of awe is found consistantly throughout the gameplay I have experianced thus far.

The bottom line is. This is the best platformer... ever. I think Gamespot realized this, and may have killed the R&C score, to purposely signify how much of another league Mario Galaxy is, from any other platformer out there.

This game is out? I had no idea.

Anyway, I think you need to take a look at Gamerankings and Metacritic for a REALITY CHECK. R&C Future ToD is a verified AAA videogame. There is no Gamespot fiat on System Wars. You cannot censor the truth. And the truth is:

R&C=AAA.

I think the point flew over your head. R&C may be a wonderful game. However, I am saying, Mario Galaxy is a masterpiece.

That is a very likely reason. Mario Galaxy from what I'v heard could be a 10 here at GS. Cant wait to play!nikolajz1

No. Just no.

Probably. Thing is, Super Mario 64 basically laid the foundation for 3D platforming, and B-K expanded on it. It was better, but would have been nothing without Mario.

Thank you for increasing my confidence in this being my favorite game ever.

white_sox

Wow some people are in such denial.

R&C flops on gamespot so people argue the average on metacritic saying it is still AAA. When the average goes below AAA on megacritic people say that the average isn't fair.

nope! Banjo Threeie will flop miserably.

8.5 max, dont expect rare to do much except have shiney graphics and a great game....yes great not something revolutionary

[QUOTE="JiveT"]Banjo Threeie gonna kill both those pikers.ExilRock

Giving XBOX some of its best games and varietyis failing? Uh yeah I don't think so. The only thing thats full of fail is your statement.

Do you know the stupid behavior of stupid immature people? They say "Mario is only for kiddies." They think no guns, sex and violence = kiddie game = bad game. Please understand ok. Anyway, no way is this game gonna get a 10. I don't think any game will anymore.

That is a very likely reason. Mario Galaxy from what I'v heard could be a 10 here at GS. Cant wait to play!nikolajz1

wouldn't that be something?.. i can allready here the crying of lemmings and cows

Though the sheep wouldn't be around to enjoy it, they'll be to busy playing SMG lol.

Personally I don't see it getting a 10, it's just to unrealistic considering the calibure of some of the other games coming out, while I think that SMG will trump them all, it's not going to be as earth shattering as OoT or any other 10 rated game.

I think the point flew over your head. R&C may be a wonderful game. However, I am saying, Mario Galaxy is a masterpiece.

People didn't kill the score of Halo 3 just because Half-life 2 and CS: Source blow it out of the water (and they both came out years beforehand). If they did lower Ratchet and Clanks score a small bit I could understand that; a few websites dropped the score of Resistance because of how revolutionary Gears of War was and I can understand that as long as it is only a small drop.

But unfortunately where you are posting is a forum that is under gamspot, so therefor R&C is not an AAA game. Sorry please play again.

Its going to flop, see how far varied gameplay got Ratchet & Clank?

Why would I be crying if its a game worth being a 10 so be it. Do you really believe I'm going to sit here an cry and moan because a game got a 10?

lol! Half-Life 2 has the to be the most overated game of all time. Atleast here in the gamespot forums.
